Un-Believable Water

The ocean is un-believable out here. Today has been fantastically smooth, a long, low swell with O sea. Nice!!! This is day two, no actually it is into day three now, it is 2:00 am, of our trip from Marquises to the Tuamotos. We are at 12 44.834 S and 143 46.666 W and we haven't seen anything on the 12 mile radar screen but rain clouds since we left yesterday morning and we've only run into a bit of rain so far. Today and yesterday were sunny and blue and the nights both moon lit. We are missing John, he is good company, but he was so anxious to get back to Prince Rupert and it's cool rainy spring (why?). We are managing the night shifts between the three of us, no problem and spent the day lounging in the fly bridge after our heavy work schedule. You know things are slack when it becomes fun to polish the stainless!

We received an email from a good friend, still in the work world trying to make his "90th million" and I quote, "I read your blog you guys still suck! I'm starting a blog about my day at work..." and he goes on to whine about his personnel/work problems to a tune much the same as a sad country song where the truck broke, the dog ran away and so on. We had a good laugh, he made our day.
